Overview
Hello, I am a Chongqing native, a photographer, and a contracted writer for many famous travel magazines such as Lonely Planet and Condé Nast Traveler. I will lead you to explore my hometown, not just tourist attractions, but to explore this beautiful city in depth.
We will start exploring Chongqing from Tongyuan Gate, an ancient city gate built in the Ming Dynasty. Go to Huayi Road and Linhua Road, which are the most typical old communities in Chongqing. The building complex is built on the hillside, connected to the road by overpasses and steps, showing the unique architectural form of the mountain city.
Then go to Chongqing People's Auditorium, a Chinese-style building built in the 1950s, and the People's Square next to it, which is a good place for locals to relax and have fun.
Then, go to Zhongshan Fourth Road, which is a tree-lined path that records the history of Chongqing during World War II. There is also a plank road along the river where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Jialing River. Finally, the tour will end near the Zengjiayan subway station.

On arrival
Take the Metro to Qixinggang Station. We will meet outside the 4A exit of the station.
Things to note
The tour takes about 3 hours, and you can take the metro to other areas by yourself after the tour.
Please make sure to wear suitable shoes because there are many steps and uneven roads in Chongqing.
Note that this is more of a tour to explore Chongqing in-depth, so I avoided the most famous places, such as Hongyadong. But if you want to really understand the city, rather than just visit the attractions, you are welcome to join.
